I hold 3 coins espers-(3 years),insane-(2 years),html - (5 years) Shocked and price is the same....no moon ....I dont trust to holding anymore,any suggestions?
You think Holding is bullshit, you are wrong. I think your choices are wrong. Holding is a form of investment that can bring a lot of profit, however, we don't always use this investment. You need to choose the altcoins that have the potential to grow, the value will increase in the future and have many other investors choose. Your altcoins really do not have the potential, despite having spent a lot of time. You should learn more and choose the potential altcoin. Good luck

Even most people do suggest holding and do sounds very easy but this is actually isn't really an easy thing.We cant just simply hold any coin that we do want, we should always seek out on the best project that we can able to see that can go for long term and does really have real-world benefits which will somehow assure us that it will really be good for long term holds.If you just mistakenly select the wrong coin then its not really right to blame that holding is a total bullshit.

~snip~


If those businesses or merchants do really want stability then they wont bother themselves on seeking out stable coin on what you are mentioning on here but they would rather stick out to traditional local fiat currencies since theres no point on putting up money into other coin which would make things complicated when it comes to withdrawing it out.This is the common issue been talking for how many years. This is why bitcoin adoption is slowed down because of volatility matters.
6083  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Marketplace (Altcoins) / Re: Twitter Is Banning Crypto Channels?! on: March 08, 2018, 10:57:01 PM
Are you sure that your tweets are removed by the twitter management? There's only one thing that came to my mind if some of your tweets were gone now.

You are spamming and they have found it out and they are keeping an eye to your account. What you do is just posting time after time, I guess?
This is also the thing comes to my mind regarding into this situation. My twitter isn't really have the same problem like in OP which it turns out that hes abusing too much the system that leads up to spamming which we do all know that all sites do have corresponding rules towards this behavior and twitter isn't on an exemption on such issues. Checking out that most people here doesn't have problems the same as OP which means the problem is just on op itself maybe on account security or just purely spamming out and got deleted.

I just wish to learn the proper way of using Electrum.

After clicking the Send button, can I quit Electrum and power off my machine? Or do I have to wait for at least one to two confirmations to show up before I can quit Electrum and switch off my machine?
Yes, you can quit it anytime as long you can able to see the transaction hash being prompt out. Lets say when making transfers electrum do ask you for password and after you enter theres a prompt then you click ok and quit electrum without any doubts since the transaction is already being broadcasted to the network then it cant really be reversed and receiver can received exactly on what you have sent.
6085  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Good bounty manager. on: March 08, 2018, 09:47:25 PM
I dont mind which managers i am joining,the fact that they are giving my stakes i wont have any problem with these people,We should accept the fact that not all of these manager swill be good for you but we need to follow all the rules so that we wont have problems with our stakes,some of these people are dickheads sorry for the word but they are the ones who has the power to remove you from the spreadsheet so respect them,for you to receive your stakes.
Disagree with this because carelessly choosing out managers without even have the basis will really be risky.You might not spot it on the very first place but you will feel the unprofessionalism each one of them when handling out campaigns.This is why as a newbie always stick with reputable or known ones when it comes to bounty campaigns.Each of them might have a different handling but the most important thing is that they do handle it profressionaly.
6086  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Investing all my savings! on: March 08, 2018, 09:13:18 PM
Hello guys! I am planning on investing all my savings (12500$) in cryptocurrency, so I would really like to hear your opinion. My current plan is to split it in to 3 :
-50% bitcoin.
-25% ethereum.
-25% litecoin.

I am investing the money at the next dip.
Please post your opinion guys.

Edit: I should mention that this is for a longtherm hold, about 5-10 years

Sorry for my bad english, but I am better reading it than writing it.. :p


As for me, investing all of your savings for crypto would be too risky as a beginner. Any investment involves money and any thing that involves money would be risky. However, investing for the future is a smart idea but putting all of your savings in it is not advisable. It is alright if you'll put 50% in it so that you won't regret anything if the investment fails.
Even putting out 50% of your savings is already big for me.Always allocate some percentage but not too big considering that you do have still lots of priorities in life like medication,emergency purposes,insurances and any other usage of savings.If you risk it all then you can be assured if you would able to make money or not since we do all know that crypto world is really too unpredictable and even just on a matter of short time those savings of yours would vanished.
6087  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: What Problems do new investors face when researching cryptocurrencies? on: March 07, 2018, 11:37:30 PM
We all know there is a wealth of information on the internet about cryptocurrencies, but how much of it is actually helpful? How can you trust the person you are receiving information from? And is all the spread of FUD making you even rethink any of your investments?

In order to help new crypto investors, we need to come together to create a place for them to trust the information they are reading and the people they are getting it from.

If you selected, “Other” in the poll, please reply with whatever else you think new investors face when researching and then finally investing in crypto.

Thank you


Its normal to read up different words truth,fuds,false informations,hype into this place or even on other websites as well but we talk into this forum itself.Its expected you would really read up lots of informations on all types,since its a forum then anyone can freely post on what they like either the truth or just having an intent to hype up things or false informations given and as newbie we are really prone on being victimized. The solution? then better read up even more and finding out communities feedbacks towards it and sooner you will really have the idea related to the things you are searching on.
6088  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Investing in ETHLEND on: March 07, 2018, 10:57:25 PM
I am thinking about investing in  ethlend token,what do you think?
Lending is more and more popular these days but we can use platform without using his token.  So why price can go up?
For now I would pass into these kind of projects which is related into lending which If we do try to recall on what happened to bitconnect then we can already picture out on what would possibly happen on the same projects that do have the same field. Lots of them already failed and become scam, have a look in Davor, the same concept but it ends up the same way.Therefore its better to find another projects than into this one.
6089  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Bounties and Airdrops on: March 07, 2018, 10:12:18 PM
- what are they
These are one of the ways on how project do distribute their tokens,

- how do they work
Airdrop = Free coins , Bounties= Need to do task

- what do they pay
Their own tokens most of the time.
- how do they pay
They are not actually paying since startup coins doesn't have value, they are doing this on seeking up investors
- are there any other points to consider?
As a newbie you can eventually make money on this but not really a guarantee.

So explicitly written... the big issue is which gift end up being useful.
This is the question that cant really be answered yet no matter how many kind of distributions can be made there would be no assurance on succeeding or making money out of those bounties and airdrops.They do have different of system on giving out coins either free or do need some task but well they do have the same motive which is the distribution of such coin.Making out money would be entirely different to each  other since we do all know airdropped tokens only given on small numbers unlike on bounties which do have more.
It cant really be answer by any people since we are still seeking out everyday on projects that do have potential to progress in longer runs specially now that every now and then there are lots of projects is being launched of which will make even more harder for us to point out which project is worth on to invest or to engage.Involving yourself into these things do always have a corresponding risk either you will lose money or just entire wasting up your effort on doing such task.
6090  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading Time For Crypto Currency on: March 07, 2018, 09:53:39 PM
Are there any best time to trade cryptocurrency on any platform just like in Forex. If there is? What is the best time or day to trade.

Thanks in advance
Theres no particular time to trade in cryptoworld since its entirely different with forex and stocks which markets do have openings and closings. Unlike in crypto you can able to trade 24/7, 7/7 according into your interest and that's the good thing on this market. Platforms? Then there are lots just be sure on going to reputable or known ones than on trying out shady exchanges. Poloniex,bittrex is my suggestion towards this.
Don't mind up timeframes the thing you should be concerned on how to trade profitably.
6091  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you like airdrops? [A poll based on topic 2897311] on: March 07, 2018, 09:31:32 PM
Do you like airdrops? [Poll]


We found Do you like airdrops? thread interesting,
but it's hard to see the proportional distribution of opinions.
That is why we have prepared a poll sum it up and represent opinions in a simple way.







Its not a waste of time in my part since I do thoroughly seek out potential airdrops or projects that do give free tokens.Might not be accurate it do works for me most of the time.Its just really a matter or researching things up.Its not bad to try out or participating airdrops yet requirements or sign ups isn't really time consuming on each one of them.It does depend on you on how you would utilize your time.
6092  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Is it possible to use bitcoin like offline currency? on: March 06, 2018, 05:49:59 PM
There is a big difference. Offline currencies we can hold them in our hands physically, we can give it to people without having to make use of electronics or devices and electricity and the rest of them. They are also accepted in every business and in stores. But the way Bitcoin is, you can’t be able to use it as an offline currency, cause it’s totally different.
Its really totally different since its a digital currency and it does work as it should be and cant really be considered to be used on offline. How would you create such thing supplying out 21 Million physical bitcoin into almost 10B entire population of the world?Its really an impossible thing and beyond all adoption isnt still there and it wont really come to a point that no government would really oppose to this idea.
6093  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: Is Coinbase a safe wallet ? on: March 06, 2018, 04:55:34 PM
But the fee is little bit high when compared to blockchain wallet.But it is not good to use coinbase as a wallet we may store little bit of bitcoin but for the people who are keeping coinbase as a wallet is in great danger on losing their funds to hackers.
In what way is Coinbase's fee higher than the one from blockchain? If you're referring to external withdrawals, Coinbase shouldn't be higher at all, and I actually doubt it is higher. Coinbase only charges a vanilla network fee.

I however agree that holding coins on Coinbase (or any other service that doesn't grant you access to your private keys) isn't the right thing to do, although it does offer a certain form of convenience.

I am not really worried about hackers when it comes to exchanges, but more so about insider theft, or governments raiding an exchange, and from there seize people's crypto assets, just like what happened with BTC-E.
In most cases i do believe that those were always an inside job and they are just really having an alibi that they are being hacked by someone.Truth or not then i dont still really believe on what they are trying to reason out.I dont have any trust to 3rd party wallets or any places which i dont really possess keys. The thing on using coinbase is the convenience that it gives.Its a good medium on buying or converting out your bitcoins thru local fiat but it wont really be ideal if you make it as a storage.
6094  Economy / Speculation / Re: If bitcoin were more than 100K, how much you would buy? on: March 06, 2018, 03:47:54 PM
If i knew that bitcoin costs more than 100k, i would buy three at least and take a pause for the cause. I would drop crypto business and wouldn't take care about it
This is too much to consider or somehow an impossible thing for reaching out that price,if it can do such thing then i cant imagine on the entire marketcap of bitcoin would really turns out to surpass local fiat currency.This would indicates that adoption of bitcoin coming to a point that it is majorly considered already on most parts of the world.If it do reach 100k/coin then even buying a quarter of it would really be a challenge for me already.
6095  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: How to make your project successful? on: March 06, 2018, 03:03:29 PM
to make it success have a  strong determination  patience  all positive thoughts .build astrong team work search and build good communications to all members relationship to all members is also important.

Thank you for your comment, you are absolutely right: Communications and relationships in the team are very important
Communication and good relationship is one of the key to the make project successful including the budget, the scope of every team members that can allocate their skills and knowledge that will lead it to success.

People will recognize a project if its something worthy and useful and the investors will eventually look at it. But what with what I observed to the ICO's, one of the contribution to make it successful is the marketing / promotion.

You need a wide coverage of your advertisement to make people aware that your project is existing.
Marketing is really an important start up phase specially when its still on pre-sale or main crowdsale period because after that marketing wont really be already the major thing which i do believe development and recent updates now and then for projects development is important.If the team can sustain such qualities they can really eventually hook up possible even more investors as the days goes by since they do see that dev team is way too active which does really signifies that project do really have plans for long term.
6096  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Marketplace (Altcoins) / Re: How do one measure the success rate of a bounty program? on: March 05, 2018, 10:59:31 PM
How does one measure the success rate of a bounty campaign?

For myself, I singled out several factors
1) The size of the community supporting this project (Twitter, Facebook, Medium etc)
2) the project team
3) whitepaper project
4) bounty managers
5) amount of rewards
6) terms and conditions of a bounty campaign

Thanks to everyone for the insight.
 I noticed everyone here talked about having a great team on the project,
Does that imply if the project team is anonymous for security reasons, they won't get any support nor bounty success?

People such as Vitalik Buterin and Charlie Lee, with their example made it clear that if there is a worthy project behind you, to hide your face and intent, there is no need.

You have a point there but I don't agree with you 100%. Not everyone like it being in the public domain, sometimes for security reasons and so on. Intent are never hidden in genuine projects but some dev prefers to live a private life and that doesn't imply their projects is unworthy. There are still some project with dev faces that turned out to be scam. What do you think Satoshi would be doing now if he/they were known? Maybe some government would have forced him/them to centralized blockchain or something else. Satoshi's intent was never hidden but his face.
Completely agree and you do deserve a merit for such reply which in most cases its not really a guaranteed indication of developers/creators transparency when it comes to their own creation/project.If the intent was somehow unique among others then this is one of the indications i do seek out and i can measure success rate but eventually its not a sure stuff that it would succeed depending on how people would react and sees thru the potential of such project.
6097  Economy / Securities / Re: First time investment on: March 05, 2018, 10:37:24 PM
I just opened my eyes to Bitcoin mining, I save up 80$ every month and was thinking maybe investing them in bitcoins wouldn't be that bad an idea? Whats your thoughts on this, what should a first timer know?

it's good if you can save up $80 every month and you can use it for investing in bitcoin and don't use it for anything except just hold the bitcoin in your wallet. and if you want to try bitcoin mining, then you need more money to buy some hardware to start but it will be hard for you to start because every hardware now is too expensive. my suggestion is you need to find out what is the best for you and if you think bitcoin will work for you then you can go with bitcoin only.
If you can only save up $80 per month then i do presume that you wont really have the capability on buying out ASIC hardwares which same as you said those are very expensive machines that can mine bitcoin but having this minimal step on saving up on bitcoin instead thru smaller amounts isnt really a bad idea at all.Accumulate as much as you can then better find another ways on maximizing potential profit by doing trading.Allocate a small percentage through it.
6098  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Private key is not safe on: March 04, 2018, 10:14:57 PM
I'm hacked victim,I used my etherwallet to received my assets..but why hacker know my pivate key? Hacker is sent ethereum into my wallet and used as a gas to get all my coins..how it all happened  guys.?
For your private keys to be safe is not the work of myetherwallet or any other wallets provider, it is your duty to keep your wallet private keys safe. I saw a guy that fill a bounty Google Doc form with his private key and I was surprised why instead of putting public keys he put his private keys and if I am a bad person I will move his tokens and ethereum in his wallet.
Such mistakes are common and i have experienced on seeing those guys who mistakenly put up their private keys instead of their wallet address which would result into hacking and not all people are kind enough not to access those wallet yet keys are already been exposed.They think most of the time on accessing it and stole those tokens inside of it without minding about their conscience as long they can get easy money if they are lucky they would hit up a very big balance but basing on my experience most of them are just new wallet being created by newbies which do mistakenly put up their keys on ss.
6099  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Merit not for sale! on: March 04, 2018, 09:42:29 PM
This merit system is hopeless. They only made upper level profil's value much higher for buyers. I am not a buyer but in here every legendary person has a lot of sub accounts and triying to sell them. 
This would be hopeless for those people who do farm account because they cant able to make a living already on selling out accounts.This is the best solution and for those shitposters and farmers are the ones who do mainly complain into this new merit system since they can able to make the things which they have done before on making easy money with just selling accounts.There days of making easy money is over.
6100  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Worst bounty manager? on: March 04, 2018, 09:17:37 PM
Who is the worst bounty manager?

Many ICO projects running their bounty program in many cases the ICO team don't pay attention who they hire and they ended up hiring the worst!! there are many nasty "managers" in here.  Who is the worst so far that you really hate because of his/her lack of integrity and professionalism?
So far i do have different experiences with bounty managers but i do end up mostly on some reputable bounty managers.Talking about their professionalism and campaign handling would be entirely different to each other but somehow they do able to make their part or role.I didnt experience on being handled by newbie bounty manager. I have been under by sylon,atriz,deadley,olcaytu,blockeye when it comes to bounty camps which i dont really join up to those new managers that do handle campaign.
